Woke up this morning not feeling very well, headache (which could be from our bed), stiff neck (which could be from our bed), sore back (you get the idea, could be from our bed) but during my devotional time this morning I read in Philippians:
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
and decided my ill feelings are NOT praise worthy…but what was praise worthy?
* I’m alive and Christ lives in me…this is the most important bullet point but I will continue –
* God provided food and firewood (through a generous donation) for Mercy orphanage
* God continues to guide us each and every day
* Our existence is totally reliant on God’s provision and mercy and grace
* He is always faithful
I could go on thanking Him for each breath I take, the sun, the moon, the stars, friends, family and on and on…which I do throughout the day because these are the thoughts that are praiseworthy.
